Ah I’m sure he’s considering it and the planning is a given. I’m glad the bulk of Americans have some sense in this matter at least.

purrrrrr

Thanks. They’re comforting numbers.

Stalin 1939 vibes.

There’s talk of sending the EU rapid reaction force. It’s only 5000 troops but they’re the good shit.

unless you’re just being actively partisan.

Actively propagandised.

Ah he’s only suspended and a union member. I heard that the suspension will likely be short (3 days was the figure someone in the same union said on the other site). I’m sure we’ll hear all about it if he is actually fired.

Mad props to him for seeing his opportunity, realising it was once in a lifetime and grabbing it with both hands.

Yeah arcade with a few pints is a winning mix tbh. They have a decent number of arcade machines and about 10 or so pinball machines. Good times!

Ugh. That’s a bummer.

I can pronounce it but I don’t think you have too much to worry about pal…I’ve come across that specific word about three times in my whole life.

So… eye-ch-churn-chen?

First bit like Ike (edit: or Reich)

Eye-ch-urn-ken?

Irish and we have that gutteral Ch sound in Irish so I feel like it’s a cheat code for us.

I think many, many native speakers would struggle with those too so if you’re at that level you’re doing really well. Congrats!

Native. I say suttle. It’s a dirty word from the spelling in fairness.

Roo-ter is usually British and former colonies. Row-ter is north America.
